Abstract

Factor analysis regression (FAR) of $$y _i$$ y i on $${{\varvec{x}}}_i=(x _{1i},x _{2i},\ldots ,x _{pi})$$ x i = ( x 1 i , x 2 i , … , x pi ) , i = 1,2,...,n, has been studied only in the low-dimensional case $$(p n )$$ ( p > n ) . In this paper, we develop a high-dimensional version of FAR based on a computationally efficient method of factor extraction. We compare the performance of our high-dimensional FAR with partial least squares regression (PLSR) and principal component regression (PCR) under three underlying correlation structures: arbitrary correlation, factor model correlation structure, and when y is independent of x. Under each structure, we generated Monte Carlo training samples of sizes $$n
